Note: If
an INS Form I-94 is annotated with the letters (A) through (L), this
verification that the alien does not meet citizenship requirements for FS/FF
purposes and is ineligible for benefits.If, however, the alien can present other documentation from INS that
he does meet requirements, this will be acceptable.

·Passports
stamped with the annotation “Processed for I-551” will be acceptable
verification of eligible alien status.

·A U.S.
Passport Card issued by the Department of Homeland Security, which is an
alternative to a traditional passport book.The passport card is acceptable documentation for verifying the U.S.
citizenship and identity of the bearer, but it may not be used for
international air travel. Bulletin

·Iranian
Nationals were granted “Voluntary Departure” status until September 1,
1979.After that date, INS will decide
on individual claims of persecution based on race, religion, or political
opinion.Unless an Iranian has
documentation supporting the eligible alien status, he/she is not eligible
for Families First.

·Temporary
Resident Card, Form I-668, means that an amnesty alien has been approved for
temporary residence.If the form is
coded to show that the alien was admitted under Section 245A, the alien is not
eligible.If the form is coded to show
the alien was admitted under Section 210, the alien is eligible until the
expiration date stated on the face of the document.

·Forms such
as I-688A, Employment Authorization Card, or Employment Authorization
Document (EAD) and I-689 shows that an alien has applied for
admission.They are not acceptable
documents to show that a person has been admitted under an eligible
section.In addition, Form I-181-B
cannot be used as acceptable verification.

·If the INS
Form I-94 does not bear any of the above annotations, the alien may state the
reason and submit other conclusive verification, such as a notice, letter, or
identification card that establishes that the alien has been admitted for
permanent residence as a legal alien.

-Form G-641
(Application for Verification of Information from Immigration and
Naturalization Service Records) when it is properly annotated at the bottom
by INS representative that the alien was admitted lawfully for permanent
resident status or paroled for humanitarian reasons.

·A court
order stating that deportation has been withheld pursuant to Section 243 (h)
of the Immigration and Nationality Act.

·The alien
may contact INS or otherwise obtain the necessary verification.If the household does not wish to contact
INS, give the household the option of withdrawing the application or
participating without the ineligible alien.

·If an alien
is unable to provide an INS document that will verify alien status (not even
an INS Form 1-94), the worker has no responsibility to contact INS on the
alien’s behalf.When a person
indicates inability or unwillingness to provide documentation of alien
status, that person should be classified as an ineligible alien status.
